Over the course of his career,
Dave Foutz
made 4,859 plate appearances
and pitched 1,997 innings.
Foutz
was worth
35.3 Wins Above Replacement
(12.8 as a hitter and 22.7 as a pitcher)
and 13.3 Wins Above Average
(1.4 as a hitter and 12.0 as a pitcher).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 35.3 WAR becomes
32.3 adjWAR. Then, WAA is adjusted by ignoring negative seasons
(thus, truly capturing a player’s peak seasons) and making similar adjustments for catchers and relief pitchers.
After these adjustments, the 13.3 WAA becomes 19.1 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Foutz 66.7 wWAR. wWAR is then converted to Hall Rating.
A Hall Rating of 100 represents the Hall of Stats borderline (similar to OPS+ or wRC+, where 100 represents league average).
Dave Foutz has a Hall Rating of
63,
leaving him short of induction to the Hall of Stats.
